Makes sense, since now Ek is mentioning it. No chance of it happening

Had heard Chiasson mentioned a bit ago. Possible, but there are other options I like better.

Who do you like? To me the 4th line is to vanilla. 3 undersized non physical guys

You do realize there is a good chance Andersson is the center on that line.

Don't feed the animals!!!
If he's calling Fast undersized at 6 foot, just under 200lbs. what do think he will say about Lias being one inch shorter?!?!

he doesn't like Fast on the 4th line and hates Fast playing on any of the other 3 lines

Im fine with Fast on the 4th line, but the other 2 are very similar, not physical, don't have great size etc. not a great combo IMO

You have seen Lias play (presumably through hi-light clips) for about 3 minutes. At 18 years old. Please tell me how it is you can say he is not physical and will not have good size with such certainty. Please.

I see what you did there!

Not one to feed the troll, I think he's saying there should be guys on the 4th line whose sole job it is to muck, grind and hit, not score goals. AV has no use for such a line, he wants every line to be able to score.

Lias actually plays a physical game from what I saw.

The game against the Fins one of the Fins came over to say something after a whistle and he knocked the dude flat on his ass.

Norway probably saw it too.

AND he's a physical player. We're gonna love him

There are no teams that have an "old style" 4th line anymore. You have to be able to score occasionally, and play some great defense now. Oh and better be able to skate too.

Sounds like my Mets (yes, I went there). Got caught in a twitter war on the trade last night.

Thank God, Jan, that the Rangers owners aren't the Wilpons Their allowing of Daniel Murphy, after delaying in making him his initial qualifying offer, to simply walk away free to sign with Washington, will be remembered as their own similar "Midnight Massacre" like (Tom Seaver late 1970's trade) turning point of their ownership.

That's what I'm hoping for. Haven't seen him play at all, so I'm trusting in the reports and scouts. Lets see what Lias does in camp before passing Chiefs bust decree.

Yep. But even better to me was the way he used his body to gain position and keep the opposition off balance in the clips I saw of him playing along the boards.

It's a big (frank)ing responsibility to be called "Norway". It's too much for me...

they got Doug Flynn though, he was the bomb

Yeah, he is built like a fire hydrant. He is going to be a possession monster. Jimbo will love that stat.
